OLD TREES A stone’s throw from the city of Rotterdam lies the nursery of De Haas family. Sixty-five years ago Aad de Haas (80) purchased a piece of land to set up and develop his own business. Violets, hanging plants and other crops thrive here. Sheep and their little lambs are taken good care of. Children are born and grandchildren come visiting. For years, the locals have bought their fresh eggs from this family. While the family members continue to do what they are supposed to do as best as they can, in the background we can hear the alarming sounds of the excavators. New property is scheduled to be built on the family’ territory.
